That’s life Songtext
von Shawn James

That′s life
That's what all people say
You′re ridin' high in April
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I′m back on top, back on top in June

That′s life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin' on a dream
But I don′t let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world it keeps spinnin′ 'round

I′ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race


That's life
Oh, and you know I can′t deny it
Many times I thought of quitting, baby
But my heart won′t buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
Well, I′d hop upon a big bird and then I'd fly

I′ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That′s life
Oh, and you know I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out
But my heart won′t buy it
And if there′s nothing shakin' come this July
Well, I′m gonna roll myself in a little ball and die

That's life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin′ on a dream
But I don't let it get me down
′Cause this fine old world it keeps spinnin' 'round
